Game Mechanics Static Townsperson spawns are non attackable npcs that appear at fixed positions in every NPC city. Static townsperson npcs come in several types: Decorative Npcs Town Mission Giving Npcs Delivery Mission Targets Crafting Mission Targets Herald Npcs Quest Npcs Bartenders Junk dealers Chassis Dealers Event Promoters Skill Trainers General Conversation Mission Giving Npcs Mission giving npcs follow the same rules as decorative npcs. Mission npcs are in fact decorative npcs that come in clusters of 2. All groupings of 2 decorative npcs are involved in the mission giving process. One of the npcs will be a herald for the actual quest giver, informing the player to talk with it. Note: On the live servers, Npcs that are within spaceports cannot be interacted with (unknown why this occurs), therefore even if the spaceport has a grouping of 2 npcs, these npcs wont act as mission givers. Delivery Mission Targets Delivery mission targets are npcs that are selected to be part of the delivery missions either as the initial quest starter or as the delivery target. All delivery missions utilize "commoner" spawns which are fixed npcs around every town. The mission objective selects a random commoner to be the npc the player uses to begin the quest and then another commoner is selected out of the commoner node for a particular town to act as the npc that the player must deliver the object to. Commoner npcs follow the same ruleset as filler npcs except that only commoner style npcs are selected for spawning. Crafting Mission Targets Crafting mission targets are npcs that are selected to be part of the crafting missions either as the initial quest starter or as the delivery target. All crafting missions utilize "commoner" spawns which are fixed npcs around every town. The mission objective selects a random commoner to be the npc the player uses to begin the quest and then another commoner is selected out of the commoner node for a particular town to act as the npc that the player must deliver the object to. Commoner npcs follow the same ruleset as filler npcs except that only commoner style npcs are selected for spawning. Herald NPCs Herald npcs are npcs that are used to inform players of particular spots on a planet through dialogue and by issuing waypoints. These npcs use the same model and name at all times and are always found in the same position. Quest NPCS Quest npcs are a form of static npc that a player interacts with to begin a quest series. Quest npcs use unique models and names for that particular npc and do not follow the patterns for decorative npcs. Quest npcs can always be found in the same spot at all times.
